As reported on May 13, ACCT Philly is attempting to tackle upper respiratory infections (URI) in a number of the dogs in its kennels at the facility on Hunting Park Ave. After consulting with national experts and other partners, ACCT Philly has been advised that the best chance of restoring health in its kennels will require a two-week shutdown of adoptions as well as the sheltering-in-place of dogs already in its kennels. During this time, ACCT Philly must avoid–as much as possible–any new intake into the general dog population. As a result, we will not be taking any new owner-surrendered dogs for two weeks, unless the dog is a risk to public safety or is ill or suffering, and in both instances requires euthanasia.

We’re very sorry for the inconvenience and encourage you to read our latest updates and FAQ for additional information.
